Apparently the answer is to catch the rocket fairing in ships equipped with huge nets. Recovering the pieces undamaged so they can fly again will save millions of dollars, and on Monday, SpaceX managed to catch both halves for the first time.

The PS5 and Xbox Series X are getting remastered 'Overcooked' games
There better be raytracing.
